    About this audiobook

    When spirited Verity Bowman is left a sizeable legacy by her uncle on condition that she spends six months 'in a wholly rational manner', neither she nor her long-suffering attorney Charles Congreve have any idea where it will lead them. Nor, it has to be said, does anyone else.

    Set in Newmarket and London, A Rational Proposal is the first in the Furze House Irregulars series featuring women of spirit, women of courage, women who don't see why, in this male-dominated Regency era, they should not also play their part in bringing wrongdoers to justice.

      Well paced, amusing and very romantic. I enjoyed it a lot.
    • 5/5
      Brilliant. A lot darker than the normal regency romances but probably more realistic. Very well written.
